Property Description
Located on a tree-lined street, just a stone's throw from the Sedgwick train station and Germantown Ave., this extra-large twin home is a hidden gem with incredible potential. With great bones and timeless character, it offers an elegant but comfortable living experience, perfect for anyone looking to add their personal touches and build instant equity. A large front yard and spacious porch welcome you, offering the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee. Inside, original hardwood flooring, crown molding, bay windows, and high ceilings highlight the home's charm. The generously sized living room is bathed in natural light and features one of two fireplaces. The dining room boasts coffered ceilings, adding to the home's character. The large kitchen, with white cabinets, ample counter space, and room for a table, leads to a mudroom with laundry and a convenient half bath. The backyard is a standout, featuring a deck and plenty of yard space to enjoy. Upstairs, you'll find six sizable bedrooms spread across two floors, all with large windows and abundant natural light. The second-floor front bedroom features the second fireplace, while the hall bathroom retains its original detailing, complete with a linen closet and classic tub. The third floor, which has been completely repainted, offers three additional bedrooms with hardwood floors beneath the carpeting. A full bathroom with a shower completes this level. The basement, with good ceiling height, provides excellent storage. Major updates include a recently installed roof with a transferable warranty and a new boiler in 2023. While the home could use some TLC, its charm and potential are undeniable. The location is fantastic—just a stone's throw from the Sedgwick train station and Germantown Ave.'s shops and restaurants.
